Hair dye, that sounds messy. Chalk, that sounds messy too. I can only imagine that kids would think this is briliant fun and that their parents will hate it, especially when that dye gets rubbed into the carpets.
I’m trying to find toys that aren’t yet more plastic tat to eventually be thrown away. Wood is a lovely material and durable too, so kids will irritiale their parents endlessly with it.
Why does wood seem like such an appropriate material of childrens toys? No idea, but these noisy, colourful maracas with a frog and lion on look brilliant and you can rest assured that there’s no batteries to stop that noice flowing for hours and hours.
The description says it all here… “allows you to create a whole heap of noisy, messy, bubbling, fizzing, explosive experiments. Loads of fun learning about the science of why things explode, froth and make loud noises.
Yet more disguisting science which kids will love, their parents will hate and you can claim “but it’s so educational” with an innocent face, leaving them to deal with the mess.
I loved my chemistry kit as child. They seem pretty tame these days, but I like all the ingrediants in this one (so long as you’re not in my house) including sand, slime powder, glue, green and red food colouring.
The recorder is without doubt the worst and terriblely noisy excuse for an instrument. The reviews are astounding. This might be the original bastard uncle present.
This is not a drill, this is NOT A DRILL!
Glitter + Spraypaint Yes, that’s right. When I started this site the perfect gift in my head was an airhorn full of glitter.
My favorite screaming plastic chicken is called Paul. He’s an irregular member of my favorite podcast. He’s irritating as all heck. I have no idea is this is Paul, but I bet he’s just as fun.
Since first gracing our screen and ears in 2010 the vuvuzela has remained the undoubted king of irritating noise making “toy”. No batteries requires. Good.
